Here we have a stunning, Art Nouveau plate, hand painted by W A Pickard. It is marked on the back with the Pickard, gold, maple leaf mark, which was used between 1912 and 1918. The stamp is black, which dates this particular plate to the later end of that date range. The plate has gold hotsell painted handles.
Measurements: 8" handle to handle
Condition: Very good, antique condition. No chips, cracks or repairs. Some crazing as expected from age.
A Little History: Wilder Austin Pickard (1857–1939) started the Pickard China in 1894 in Wisconsin by offering his customers hand-painted giftware, artware and eventually dinnerware. He moved the company to Chicago in 1897. The company was originally called Pickard China Studio and it specialized in hand-decorating dessert and tea sets from blanks imported from Europe.
